Maria Shriver, niece of JFK: He was a man interested in the arts, culture, education, language, history... It is beyond comprehension that the president has sought to rename this great memorial. C’mon my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny... It’s downright weird.

25% of ACA enrollees have signaled they may drop coverage in 2026 if subsidies expire. Millions of families could face skyrocketing premiums, surprise medical bills, & gaps in essential care. Democrats are fighting to extend protections, while Trump signals no change.

I took a little comfort in this. Though the National Security Strategy is alarming, does Trump really have the discipline or the cognitive function to implement this? It would be disastrous to cut economic and military ties w/Europe…and

Americans are paying higher costs in the Trump/GOP affordability crisis brought on by Trump/GOP’s tariffs (taxes on American consumers & businesses)! Bills continue piling up with increased costs for electricity, groceries, health care etc.! You pay more $ all so Trump/GOP & billionaires get more $!

Antizionism is a hate movement built on distorting history, outright propaganda and terrorism apologia. This is not progressive, nor is it the foundation for a just and pluralistic society. 🎙️ @noatishby.bsky.social

In 2016, Whiskey Pete Hegseth bluntly warned that Trump would push unlawful military orders and abandon anyone who refused to break the law for him. These people weren’t fooled; they saw the risk to the country and the military. They chose complicity over integrity, and they’re still doing it.

Many Americans are forced to take less effective medication because even with their healthcare premiums doubled and tripled their insurance companies won’t cover the more effective treatments. #TrumpAffordabilityCrisis

This is a disturbing post on X by a disturbed individual. Pete Hegseth is a murderer.

If nothing else, the last nine months should have made it clear that elections matter. But what’s remarkable about America is that we have the power, as citizens, to change this country by voting. Go to IWillVote.com.

And USDA is blaming undocumented immigrants, trans people, and Democrats when it is all on Trump. Trump has an authorized $5B SNAP contingency fund he won't use because he wants to make people suffer to force Democrats to accept his terms. That includes children, veterans, active duty troops.

The rise in costs you’re feeling, it’s by design. Skyrocketing prices, government shutdowns, and fear mongering aren’t accidents, they’re part of a deliberate strategy to break our trust in government and keep power concentrated in the hands of a few.

Stop Trump, vote YES on Prop 50!

First it was the Rose Garden and now it’s the East Wing. During the four years I worked at the WH it was a thrill and an honor to take my family and friends on private tours of the “People’s House .” This is just heartbreaking.

From a friend who was driving north on I-5 this am: “The five freeway will be closed today from noon until 3 PM to accommodate the live ammo demonstration from Camp Pendleton.” This is going to create a huge traffic jam since there is no detour around it. Why the f**k are they using live ammo?

Imagine if your child went to a concert & was taken hostage by terrorists after 400 of their fellow concert-goers were massacred & the world ignored your kid or celebrated his plight. There's so much bias against Jewish people & it's heartbreaking! #2yrsTooLong #LetThemGoNow Read Mindy's Substack⬇️

On this two year anniversary of the brutal October attack on Israel, let's see the last 732 days have taken us all.

Trump & Texas GOP moved first. Their politicians are rigging their maps to cheat, ignore voters & keep things in their favor. Now California must act. By Nov 4, voters choose our maps. (Ballots begin arriving October 6; vote YES on Prop 50 & return your ballot ASAP, no stamp needed) #YesOnProp50

Trust your doctor, not the President, with your healthcare decisions. 🩺

It’s far from certain that James Comey will be indicted After all, Jeanine Pirro struggled getting indictments in DC But even if charges are brought, given Trump’s tampering, a judge could still dismiss the case Because in America, we don’t decide guilt before determining if there’s even a crime

Their elected leaders won’t even free them, over the years they’ve turned down 5 opportunities to live in peace. It’s time you realize the truth and stop letting that movement destroy your country too.

Jews never left Israel. 1899 Colonize meant to set up a Jewish colony in our indigenous homeland. Not modern day usage of colonize. How do we know? At that time, the mid east was either French or British Empire. Brits didn’t establish an American colony, Jews re-established Israel.

Despite claims from Trump that the man who shot Charlie Kirk was part of a left-wing conspiracy, investigators find no evidence to back that claim. According to NBC News early Saturday morning, three insiders claimed they're "coming up dry", in searching for a link. #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

They took away a woman’s right to choose Then they took equity from Black people Medicaid benefits from people of limited means Food from schoolchildren The right of Hispanic people to live without fear of persecution And now they want to take our First Amendment rights WE MUST FIGHT BACK

Do you know how many the right wing has and how influential they’ve been, in particular to young white males? We can’t have too many. We need to reach as many people as possible and if podcasts are one way, then let’s flood the zone with them.

Ukraine was attacked by Russia. Israel was attacked by Hamas. Free Ukraine from Russia! Free Israel and „Palestine“ from Hamas!
